Siheyuan: Fishing for All Things

While everyone was busy, Bayford subconsciously opened the bag and took a look, but just this one look made him stunned in place, sweat on his forehead.

"Old man, why are you stupid?"

Li Fugui laughed and scolded, and came over to take a look, and was also dumbfounded.

"You are not stupid after seeing it?" Bayford pouted.

"What's the situation?"

Zhang Chunrong also came over.

"You can see it yourself. I think the consultation fee will still be a little higher." Li Fugui sighed.

"Hmm."

Zhang Chunrong stretched his neck to take a look, and was so scared that he almost fell to the ground.

There were three wild ginsengs in the bag, all as thick as a baby's arm, and the dense ginseng whiskers were not ordinary.

In the old society, these things were life-saving things at home.

Wild ginseng is fine, but Polygonum multiflorum, bezoar, Ganoderma lucidum... every medicine is priceless.

"This... what should I do?" Bayford whispered.

"We'll talk about it later."

Zhang Chunrong gritted his teeth and said, "If it doesn't work, the three of us will give Uncle Six a little more... I'm afraid he can't bear it alone."

"That's the only way." Li Fugui smiled bitterly.

"Don't stand there, bring the medicine..." Lin Shaowen shouted under the eaves.

"Here it comes."

Befford immediately ran over with the bag.

There was a big pot in front of Lin Shaowen, and the water in the pot had begun to boil.

He got a medicine grinder next to it, threw the Ganoderma lucidum in first, and started grinding the medicine.

"Master Lin, how about I do it?" Zhang Qinyang said with a smile on his face.

"Do you know medical skills?" Lin Shaowen smiled.

"I don't know, but I can still grind medicine." Zhang Qinyang whispered.

"Don't underestimate grinding medicine, it's a big deal."

Lin Shaowen shook his head and said, "Some medicines need to be one inch, some medicines need to be half an inch, some medicines can't be too thin, and some medicines can't be too thick... This is hard to master."

"Ah."

Zhang Qinyang stepped aside.

More than two hours later.

A strange fragrance filled the whole yard, and many people swallowed subconsciously.

Lin Shaowen got a knife and started to cut the ginseng into thin slices.

Zhang Qinyang looked at such a big ginseng, and sweat suddenly appeared on his forehead.

Pacing back and forth, he felt very uneasy.

This ginseng might be worth a thousand gold coins, and he was afraid that he would really have to use it to mortgage the house.

Lin Shaowen couldn't help but laugh when he saw this.

"Master Zhang, don't be nervous. I'm here to treat your daughter. To put it mildly, it's fate. To put it more generously, it's also for Uncle Fugui and the others' sake. As long as I can cure the patient, I can get the medicine. Don't worry about the money."

"Yes, Master Zhang."

Zhang Qinyang bowed slightly.

Li Fugui and the others were all beaming. As old Beijingers, who wouldn't want to show off? Especially old people like them?

All this took another half an hour.

Lin Shaowen put the big basin in the yard, and then asked Zhang Qinyang and the others to keep boiling water.

He went to the house and carried Yin'er out.

"Master Lin, let me do it." Jiu Niang greeted him.

"That's fine."

After Lin Shaowen handed Yin'er to her, he poured a bucket of boiling water into the basin.

Then he used a big spoon to scoop a spoonful of the boiled medicine and threw it in.

Strangely enough, as soon as the medicine was thrown in.

The whole basin immediately rolled over, as if a ball of quicklime had been thrown into it.

Lin Shaowen reached in and scooped out another half spoonful.

The water rolled even more violently.

"Put the person in."

"Hey."

Jiu Niang immediately stripped Yin'er naked and put her in the basin.

After Lin Shaowen stepped forward and pulled out the silver needle from Yin'er's forehead, he pinched her chin and stuffed a piece of ginseng into her mouth.

"Get a small basin..."

"Hey."

Zhang Qinyang immediately ran to get a small wooden basin and handed it to him.

After Lin Shaowen took it, he touched Yin'er's neck with his right hand and held the basin with his left hand.

"Don't stop the hot water, keep it boiling..."

"It's burning. Without your order, I dare not extinguish the fire." Zhang Chunrong said hurriedly.

"Okay."

Lin Shaowen kept touching Yin'er's neck.

No one dared to say anything, just watched quietly.

Half an hour later.

Suddenly, his left hand flashed with silver light, and a silver needle was inserted into Yin'er's head.

Hmm.

Yin'er's body suddenly twitched.

Lin Shaowen immediately brought the basin to her mouth.

Ugh!

Yin'er vomited immediately.

A fishy and unpleasant smell made many people cover their mouths subconsciously.

But Lin Shaowen's expression did not change, just watching her quietly.

Three minutes later.

Yin'er finished vomiting.

Lin Shaowen stuffed another piece of ginseng into her mouth and handed the basin to Zhang Qinyang.

"Throw it into the fire and burn it, then wash the basin clean.""Yes."

Zhang Qinyang looked at the still squirming vomit with lingering fear, and ran into the kitchen quickly.

Lin Shaowen took the bucket and began to scoop water. After scooping away half of it, he slowly added new hot water and new medicine.

After doing all this, he took out a cigarette and lit it.

"Master Lin, how long will this treatment take?" Zhang Chunrong whispered.

"It will probably take several hours."

Lin Shaowen shook his head and said, "Later, one of you can go to my house to report safety. I ran out in a hurry and didn't tell my family."

"No problem, your wife probably hasn't gotten off work at this time, I'll arrange someone to go there later." Bayford said immediately.

"Master Lin, what disease does Yin'er have?" Li Fugui asked curiously.

"Eating raw fish, especially freshwater fish, is very easy to be infected with parasites." Lin Shaowen smiled bitterly, "Of course, this is also a matter of personal luck... Some people can eat it for a lifetime and it's fine, while others will get infected after eating it once."

"Master Lin, the doctor who treated Yin'er said that she had ascites, but he didn't explain what it was specifically." Jiu Niang said softly.

"Schistosomes."

Lin Shaowen sighed, "Schistosomes can cause hepatosplenomegaly... In the early stages of this disease, it's better to use antigen drugs to treat it."

"Antigen drugs? What kind of medicine is that?" Zhang Qinyang came over.

"Western medicine."

Lin Shaowen spread his hands and said, "Drugs developed by Western medicine..."

"Ah?"

Everyone was slightly stunned.

"Master Lin, are you a Chinese medicine practitioner?" Bayford said cautiously.

"Don't underestimate Western medicine. Whether it's Western medicine or Chinese medicine, they are all doctors... We doctors also have to keep learning advanced medical technology, right?" Lin Shaowen chuckled.

"Master Lin is well-versed in both Chinese and Western studies. We admire him." Zhang Chunrong bowed.

"Stop flattering me."

Lin Shaowen cursed with a smile and exhaled a puff of smoke. "Her illness has been delayed for too long... If no special measures are used, it will be difficult to save her life."

After saying that, he threw the cigarette butt away.

He walked to the big basin again, holding the basin in his left hand and the needle in his right hand.

Zhang Qinyang watched Yin'er take pieces of ginseng in her mouth and spit them out one by one, and he couldn't help but tremble with fear.

More than five hours later.

Lin Shaowen asked someone to bring a blanket and lifted Yin'er out of the water.
